There are lots of people spreading hate about other peoples systems,,,rather than just talking about why they do or do not like certain things. All you have to do to see this is click on any news item that is specific to a console.
I have even been a part of this at times,,,and am now totally sick of it.

If we want to be better than the people who just love to show their bias then we have to counter with a well thought out argument,,not just calling the person a fanboy or some worse name.

I pledge (and I hope more people will do so) to no longer get pulled into arguments that are just based on emotion, and not fact. I pledge that I will not call names or say dirty nasty things to people (no matter how funny I find it).
I hope more people at 1up will start to act more civil as well, and that we can start having a better dialogue than just PS3/Xbox/Nintendo sucks.
IF you like something---give reasons why. If you dislike something---give reasons why. Don't just hate on people for not agreeing with you.

Sarcasm is something that should be used in moderation,,and usually does nothing but make you look bad in the end unless it is backed up by a well thought out point.

If I have been a jerk or just a sarcastic a--hole at some point to you,,please forgive me. While you are at it-write me a letter or drop me a comment. Tell me what you are playing and why you like or dislike it. We all love the same thing here--Videogames-- can't we all just get along??
